In three years in the death-rate in Ontario from consumption proves that the fight against this dread disease is no losing one. The Muskoka Free Hospital for Consumptivcs, for which this appeal is made, without any endowment keeps an open door to all who are poor and sick, as long as a vacant bed remains.

Dun anxn, Season’s Greetings AN OPEN LETTER FROM MR. W. J. GAGE. Before you read many, I think you will want to try the tea and if you buy a pound, the tea itself will do the rest. The reasons will be interesting and educative about tea-well worth reading. This is just what I propose to do. In the successive issues of this paper I will publish a number of facts and reasons why I believe Red Rose Tea is the best tea in Canada, and why you should use it. It is however easy to make statements about what we believe, I think it is better to give definite, positive reasons why an article is believed to be the best, and if any article has real. merit, it should be easy to give convincing reasons.

Fifty dollars will keep a sick one for two months, may save a life Three hundred dollars will endow a bed for o yea. The pitiful part of it all is in knowing how many more lives could have been saved if the needfgl money had been forthcom- ing to proyide additional beds. You have the joy of knowing that 'your dollar has helped in this merciful work. From 1900 there has been a large de- crease each year, reducing the death- rate from 3,484 to 2,072 in three years, or over 40 per cent. This is all the more remarkable in view of the increase in population. The official Report of the Secretary of the Provincial Board of Health tells a sum story-11 story of a winning fight, showing that; from 1897 up to 1900 there was a steady increase in the death- rate from Tuberculosis. _ Why should consumption not be stamped out if the needfnl money and help be forth- chmiag 2 $50,000 should be given this year if the Board is to provide for the increased ac- commodation and maintenance of those pleading for admission. “'here will your money do so much good in bringing health to the sick and protect- ing the lives of those in your horhe ?
